The number of murders recorded in London dropped to its lowest level per capita since records began. There were 97 homicides in the capital in 2025, down 36 per cent from 153 in 2019. 2025 saw a homicide rate of 1.1 per 100,000 people - safer than comparable global cities such as New York at 2.8, Paris (1.6), Toronto (1.6), Berlin (3.2), Los Angeles (5.6), Chicago (11.7), and Philadelphia (12.3).

@dieworkwear This is my 1975 280 SE. Hasn’t let me down once in the past seven years and costs $1200 p/a in maintenance. Just buy a good one and keep away from salted roads because… rust. I was looking for a W123 and then spotted this charmer for sale.

On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made a series of claims about the BBC's coverage of events in Gaza on Sunday. We've looked at the claims - and the number of misrepresentations and untruths that they contained.

@almurray Have you read 'London War Notes' by the splendidly named Mollie Panter-Downes? It's wonderful on much of this. Her essays were originally published by The New Yorker, now gathered together in a collection by Persephone.

This photo is claimed to show Nigel Mansell in a Capri at the 1987 British Grand Prix. But why would the Mansell of '87 be in a grassy car park with a load of people in an obsolete Ford? It's not even a 280. I suspect it's a Nige lookalike. Can anyone confirm?

I don't really use Facebook, but do allow IG to cross post. There's been an uptick in the amount of notifications I've been getting, and in true Facebook style they're often negative. The increase percentage did make me laugh, though (right at the top)

Wish I was still writing Sniff Petrol so I could post a fake column from a ruddy faced man who’s FURIOUS because Jag released a teaser that wasn’t just Stirling Moss wanking off a bulldog in a BRG E-Type next to a Supermarine Spitfire and who has never bought a Jag in his life.

Here's a couple of photos from @peter_grunert of @JoeMacari and his lovely Dane in the LaFerrari. If you're a fan of print media, buy a copy of @roadratmagazine, you won't regret it!
